Travel Grants for Faculty at Minority/Female Institutions to Attend FCRC '07

汉密尔顿学院寻求资助来自少数族裔/女性本科机构的50名教员参加2007年的计算研究联合会会议。FCRC是附属研究会议和研讨会的集合，在共同的时间在共同的地方举行为期一周的协调会议。它既保留了小型会议的优点，同时又方便了计算机科学和工程领域不同领域的研究人员之间的交流。这一奖项将使主要负责女性和少数族裔学生教育的教职员工能够参加，否则他们可能没有必要的资金参加。通过参加，这些教师将接触到一系列主题的最新研究，使他们能够在吸引学生时更好地传达该领域的兴奋。

Hamilton College seeks funding for fifty faculty from minority/female undergraduate institutions to attend the Federated Conference on Research in Computing (FCRC) in 2007. FCRC is an assembly of affiliated research conferences and workshops in a week long coordinated meeting held at a common time in a common place. It both retains the advantages of the smaller conferences, while at the same time, facilitates communication among researchers in different fields in computer science and engineering. This award will enable faculty who deal primarily with the education of women and minority students who might otherwise not have the necessary funding to attend. In attending, these faculty will be exposed to current research across a range of topics, making them better able to convey the excitement of the field when engaging students.
